Coming To Terms With Myself - Tumblr Posts

I did it. I actually did it. I wrote what I am in a place that can be seen by others. This is HUGE for me. I’ve never said it out loud, and will probably never tell my family, but it’s out there in the world now. Wow. I’m sure for those younger than me this is nothing- pronouns and orientation and identity are a way of life. And that’s great. I’m so glad y’all are growing up so confident and open. It’s not that way for my generation. Not as bad as the ones before us, true, but the silencing pressure is a very real thing. And now I’ve made a tiny step to being honest with myself and open with the world. What a feeling.
